I received a message this morning from you (the Washington Co. List I am on) and I got a message that it couldn't be opened due to it being unsafe. I thought there may be a virus floating around some place and you should be notified. The message I got when I tried to open the attachment was: "OE removed access to the following unsafe attachments in your mail: ATT00008.eml (Arwashin) Vinyard_vinyard.eml.Re_ (arwashin) Vinyard.eml " I don't know what all the above means, but you probably do. I am interested in what the attachment was, but I can't open it. Hope this helps all of us. Dorothy

From the information you sent it was an email (eml) message, therefore safe to open. I recall seeing that message, something about the old name of a town or old name of an area somewhere here in Washington County. The town I live in was originally named Orchards, so Vineyards could be a mistake, but lots of Vineyards in the Tualatin Valley too, so the possibility remains open. Viruses of course come in executable packages....so eml, doc, etc., are relatively safe to open. However always take precautions, scan the email messages first if you suspect trouble. It takes only a few seconds to do that.
